Icicles 10-Function Glass Rabbit No 16

Date: (29 November 2011)

This has got to be one of my favourite toys in my toy box!
When I first received it, I was so impressed with the way it was beautifully packaged, it looked so gorgeous, more like an ornament than a sex toy but I still couldnt wait to get it out and start playing :-)

The first time I used it I did find it to be a little uncomfortable so I gave up!
So I tried it again a couple of days after but this time I added some lube ........ then I found it was amazing!!
I had never used a glass toy before and it really is something different, something that I think everybody should try at least once.
It is rock solid so is completely different from using a silicone or jelly toy, in a good way of course :-) but that is why you should most definitely use lubrication with this item.

As it is made of glass you can heat it up or freeze it to make it hot or cold which just adds to the pleasure, having something freezing cold inside you feels so good it just has to be tried!
This can be used with or without the vibrating bullet, I did not have a problem with the bullet falling out of the hole when using it so that was good.

My negatives about this product is that I found it to be a little noisy because the bullet is vibrating against the solid glass it seems to be rather loud.
But if you dont need to worry about loudness then it's perfect - I just sometimes use it without the bullet as it is still wonderful ;-)
Also I must say that I find that the glass does kind of block some of the effect from the vibrating bullet therefore it is not the strongest vibrator I have ever used, but it is still one of my favourites.

Overall I give this product a 4 / 5 and would recommend for anyone to give it a go, especially if you dont own a glass toy yet, go on and treat yourself!!

Now imagine that you couple the elegant and sensory aspect of glass with the fantastic functionality of a rabbit - match made in heaven? Well I have to admit the pairing of the two did sound an amazing concept. And Pipedream Products has done just that with the introduction of the worlds first glass Rabbit - Icicles 10.

Packaging: As you would expect for a worlds first they have pulled out all the stops with regards to the packaging. Comes in a sturdy box with a peek a boo lid which reveals a see through door displaying the rabbit in all its beauty. The product is packed well in foam to protect the glass which is ideal for storage purposes, as this doesn't come with a pouch which you normally tend to get with other glass products.

The product: The dildo part of the rabbit is made from Pyrex and is hand crafted with amazing detail. Slightly curved for gspot stimulation it also has a stunning ridge detail for added stimulation. The clitoral part of the rabbit consists of a hole for which to place the bullet in and also 2 nodules either side for added stimulation. The piece is finished a circular grip at the bottom which is ideal for controlling the item without it slipping away.

The bullet part of the team is all controlled via a remote control unit. You simply plug the bullet part of the remote in and away you go. The bullet is quite basic but comes with 10 different settings. The bullet is designed to slip into the clitoral hole on the rabbit. Now I have to say it isn't the strongest bullet in the world but as soon as it comes into contact with the glass it can get pretty noisy - so be warned as discreet it ain't!! The thing I also found is the bullet has a tendency to eventually slip out of the hole due to vibrating so vigorously against the glass.

With regards to feeling the vibrations through the rabbit, you do get a bit of vibration but not a lot, and because of the movement of the bullet you find yourself trying to hold onto it - in the end I decided I actually preferred the rabbit on its own.

For me the rabbit was a great shape and felt really good, and the addition of the handle at the base gives you great control even when things get a bit slippery! As the rabbit is very rigid I would be mindful of the ridges on the shaft as I did find them slightly uncomfortable after a while but that's just personal preference. The little nodules either side of the clitoral circle didn't really do alot for me, but if your more sensitive then me these could provide excellent additional stimulation.

Obviously another great element to this toy is the sensory one - heat it up or cool it down - the feeling of cold glass on your body is something to be experienced!

Conclusion: I loved the whole concept of this - the marriage of glass and a rabbit, just sounds so so promising - in reality I think it needs a little bit more work to perfect it. Id love the vibrations to be more intense and perhaps the bullet portion of the rabbit to be actually built in - which would stop the whole 'shaking out of the hole' issue.
I do love the shape of the glass - and as a dildo in its own right it pretty much hit the mark. The bullet for me was the let down part of the package - but the size of the hole could easily fit some other standard, more powerful bullets on the market so im going to experiment to see if I find one that fits better.

In terms of the first glass rabbit - it's not too bad... but I will be very interested to see how the concept develops in the future.
